PAVEMENT DESIGN AND MATERIALS Practical guide for all aspects of pavement engineering, updated with the latest techniques, standards, and software The newly revised and updated Second Edition of Pavement Design and Materials offers a comprehensive treatment of pavement materials, structural analysis, design, evaluation, and economic analysis of asphalt and portland concrete pavements. Written by two highly qualified engineering professors with a wealth of experience in the field, Pavement Design and Materials provides readers with: State-of-the-art techniques for material characterization, including a linear viscoelasticity primer Methods and software for the analysis of flexible and ridgid pavements including the AASHTOWare Pavement ME Design State-of-the-art pavement evaluation techniques including moduli backcalculation methods Pavement economic analysis techniques including the most up-to-date user cost relationships. The book companion website provides: Solved examples in each chapter and the electronic files associated with them An instructor solutions manual for the problems provided at the end of each chapter PowerPoint presentations by chapter to facilitate lecture delivery Pavement Design and Materials is an essential up-to-date textbook on the subject for upper-level undergraduate and graduate level courses on pavement materials and pavement design. It is also a valuable reference for practicing professional engineers involved in the various aspects of roadway pavement material selection and structural design.

This publication describes a pavement design methodology, termed mechanistic-empirical (M-E) pavement design, that represents a major change from the pavement design methods in practice today. Based on engineering mechanics that have been validated through extensive road test performance data, the manual presents information necessary for pavement design engineers to begin using use the MEPDG design and analysis method. The manual references AASHTOWare Pavement ME Design, M-E Pavement design software, commercially available through AASHTOWare, AASHTO's software development program. AASHTOWare Pavement ME Design has been revised from the software described in the previous edition of this manual, based upon evaluations performed by state departments of transportation and others in the community of practice. The book contains 13 chapters. After an introductory chapter, the chapters address: referenced documents and standards; significance and use of the MEPDG; terminology and definition of terms; performance indicator prediction methodologies; general project information; selection design criteria and reliability level; determining site conditions and factors; pavement evaluation for rehabilitation design; determination of materials properties for new paving materials; pavement design strategies; rehabilitation design strategies; and interpretation and analysis of the results of the trial design.
